WVVV_Rock 105_David Wilcox interview_1992
[ALL AUDIO FROM MY 30-YR OLD CASSETTE TAPE]
This recording started after John luckily dropped a cassette tape in our skimmer tape machine us jocks used for airchecking our shifts. I had been surprised by the interview, having learned about it only after coming in to the radio station that afternoon for my relaxed[not], weekend shift. I was accustomed to a very busy morning shift through the week, so I remember being shocked because I was thinking it would be me and the music for 6 hours (no hourly news, sports, history trivia, contests, etc) when I walked in to see a note on the console above the board that said, "David Wilcox performance at 6pm", which was the start of my shift.
Had like, 5 minutes to prepare before going live.
I remember being very focused on helping David get acquainted/set up with his gear over setting up my stuff, like dropping a tape in to record this rare, rare, thing.
Luckily, our evening guy, John Peterson, and his girlfriend, a psychology prof at a nearby college where I was a student of hers in her intro psych course there, was quick-thinking enough to put in a cassette tape. It's his gf's clapping in the background that you can hear, plus John's question about previous albums from the background.
I remember them standing at the entrance of the studio while David played at the guest mic, and I was at the board, with the control mic. I had to leave the mic open to catch the performance you hear here, but of course I was potted down while he was playing, to reduce ambient noise from coming in to the performance, besides what his 2 mics were picking up in his quieter moments. There's some low-level rf that bled in, plus room ambient drift from the next door sister AM station, WJJJ.
Great times. I needed it after coming home from the war to meet a divorce. Rock 105 was my first job after both of those things happened to me in 1991.
